Chef and owner Jimmy Bradley has created a lively, friendly and fun bistro in this newly popular area of west Chelsea. With small tables for intimacy and red banquettes for more social gatherings, The Red Cat features a lively crowd every night of the week. While overall this spot is fairly low-key, do not be surprised to see celebrities like Uma Thurman and ex-husband Ethan Hawke dining at the next table. The food is the real draw however, with a pleasing mix of New American and Mediterranean flavors.
